Default RE: DoJet Update

The DoJet is getting an update already. The fuse is getting remolded with an integral fin. The wings and the stabs are getting molds also. The plugs are made from a foam core sheeted with ply and then fiberglassed. The first photo shows that stage. They were then primed, painted and polished in photo 2. Now I am adding wax and buffing inbetween coates. The last photo shows the new fuse with its first coat of primer. I always put a thin layer of primer on first that is a different color than the rest. Then when you are sanding off the outer primer you know when you are about to hit the fiberglass. The outer coat will be grey primer. The wings have also gained a little sweep to make it look a little better! Let me know what you think, FYI the first DoJet is for sale ready to fly.
